Speaking Thinking & Drinking Lifes Knowledge taken from many avenues from sweat equity or upper college Courtesy easier to hide in writing, voices carry many tones, simple clatter rising, levels GROW as the beverages flow More we imbibe the less we subscribe to Emily Post, wisdom and manners begin to blend with verbal garbage Tongue twisters become more tasteless as the head gets more wasted, uncaring we become part of the local show More we drink the less we think, simple minds make companions easiest, tomorrow far off behind that mental blockage Did Hemingway think he would make a future A.A. quote, Wonder if his liver were about to quiver or the blood alcohol levels were about to overflow Speaking, thinking and drinking can become a mess in a sentence, if mixed the wrong way they might require bail, be cautious what you wish for under the mistletoe Will we recall to hold back the words at the next happy hour, or as always, a few ounces will have us hollering like it was our last rodeo. R.C.

Speaking Drinking, Thinking
Speaking Thinking & Drinking Lifes Knowledge taken from many avenues from sweat equity or upper college Courtesy easier to hide in writing, voices carry many tones, simple clatter rising, levels GROW as the beverages flow More we imbibe the less we subscribe to Emily Post, wisdom and manners begin to blend with verbal garbage Tongue twisters become more tasteless as the head gets more wasted, uncaring we become part of the local show More we drink the less we think, simple minds make companions easiest, tomorrow far off behind that mental blockage Did Hemingway think he would make a future A.A. quote, Wonder if his liver were about to quiver or the blood alcohol levels were about to overflow Speaking, thinking and drinking can become a mess in a sentence, if mixed the wrong way they might require bail, be cautious what you wish for under the mistletoe Will we recall to hold back the words at the next happy hour, or as always, a few ounces will have us hollering like it was our last rodeo.

For Hemingway quote,"Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk" Used the SAID and DRUNK part literally! My mouth mixed with alcohol is half of why I have long term sober drug free ! Thanks for reading I appreciate your thoughts. "Peace Takes Practice" Rick
